Windflowers are beloved in their native Mediterranean home because of their bright color and whimsical appearance. Their botanical name Anemone was derived from the Greek mythological word for wind gods, Anemoi. In ancient Greece, the altars of the goddess Venus were decorated with wreaths woven from these windflowers. Europeans during the Middle Ages believed these flowers had healing powers, so they laced necklaces woven from the flowers around the necks of the ill. This particular flower reminds me of an innocent child and makes me smile every time I see it.
